Roasted Portobello Mushrooms Food

ROASTED PORTOBELLO MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 F and place an aluminum foil- or parchment-lined baking sheet on the middle rack.
• Grab the mushrooms and remove the stems, scrape the gills out with a spoon, and flip the caps gill-side down.
• Cut a shallow "X" on the top of each mushroom, brush the whole cap (top and bottom) with melted fat, and season both sides with salt and pepper.
• Sprinkle some Sunny Paris seasoning (or your favorite salt-free herb blend) on the caps before sticking them on the hot baking tray in the oven, gill-side up.
• Roast the 'shrooms for 10 minutes, and then flip them over to cook for an additional 10 minutes (20 minutes total). If you're using the cooked caps as buns, you're done!
• If you're serving the 'shrooms as a side dish, slice them up and squeeze on some lemon juice and minced fresh herbs.

ROASTED PORTOBELLO CAPS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Coat a rimmed baking sheet or roasting pan with cooking spray.
• Place mushroom caps, gill-side up, on the prepared pan. Sprinkle with 1/8 teaspoon salt and pepper. Roast until tender, about 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, combine breadcrumbs, Parmesan, parsley, oil, the remaining 1/8 teaspoon salt and pepper in a small bowl. Remove the mushrooms from the oven and top each cap with about 2 tablespoons of the breadcrumb mixture, spreading evenly. Return to the oven and roast until the breadcrumbs are browned, about 5 minutes.

MARINATED ROASTED PORTOBELLOS

Steps:

• Use a spoon to remove the gills from the underside of the mushrooms. Put the mushrooms in a small baking dish.
• Combine the oil, red pepper flakes, sugar, thyme and garlic in a small saucepot and heat until bubbling and aromatic. Pour the warm oil over the mushrooms, add 1/4 teaspoon salt and toss gently to coat. Cover and marinate at room temperature for at least 1 hour and up to overnight.
• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Arrange the mushrooms on a baking pan and roast until browned and tender, about 30 minutes. Transfer the mushrooms to a serving plate and drizzle with the liquid from the pan.

ROASTED PORTOBELLO MUSHROOMS

• Brush insides and outsides of mushrooms with oil then season with salt and pepper. Arrange mushrooms, gill side up, on a baking sheet and roast until tender and beginning to brown, about 15 minutes.
• Flip mushrooms, discard any accumulated juices, and roast until mushrooms are brown and slightly dry, about 5 minutes more.

ROASTED PORTOBELLO MUSHROOM BURGERS WITH BLUE CHEESE

Steps:

• 1. Lay the mushrooms on a greased baking sheet, gill sides up. Whisk together the garlic, sherry, 2 tablespoons of the oil and 2 teaspoons of the salt. Pour the mixture over the mushrooms. Marinate for at least 30 minutes or up to 2 hours.
• 2. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Divide the cheese evenly among the mushroom caps. Roast until the mushrooms are fork-tender and the cheese is melted, 15 to 20 minutes. Reserve any cooking juices in the pan.
• 3. Meanwhile, heat the remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over high heat. Add the onions and cook until charred and tender, stirring often, about 10 minutes. Add the spinach and the cooking juices from the mushrooms. Cook until just the spinach is wilted. Season with the remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt.
